The Revenant’s Will Poulter admits the cast were ‘taken so far beyond what our limits were’

Will Poulter has revealed that he doesn’t believe the cast of The Revenant ‘knew we were going to be taken so far beyond what our limits were’ on the set of the brutal movie.

The film, based on the true story of Hugh Glass, one of the first explorers to visit uncharted American wilderness, was rumoured to have gruelling days on location and could only film for two or three hours a day due to sunlight issues.

Will told Metro.co.uk that the cast ‘regularly found ourselves up against the weather, with that being a character in itself.

‘We knew it would be tough and that we would be pushed to our limits – I don’t know if we knew we were going to be taken so far beyond what our limits were.’
